THE CONSOLIDATED.

''But all who know the man and have watched his course as president of the road know that he has been actuated by the sole and unceasing desire to make the most of the great property that he has had charge of. When he took it the stock stood at ITO. Since then it has steadily paid it's ten per cent. dividends, has acquired the Air Line road, the Valley road, the Canal road and various minor lines and sells now at 215 and fares have been reduced, though only very lately, to cents mile.
 'Mr. Clark, his successor, while also col lege bred, is railroad man by taste and training and natural inclination. It is his business. He knows the Consolidated road from one end to the other, and is himself re- sponsible already for many of it's compare lively recent physical improvements. He believes in progress-in good cars, fast trains, and the accommodation of the pub lie, and, if we are not entirely mistaken in him, he is fully conscious of the opportuni- ty as we'll as the responsibility that goes with the management of this great railroad. He is man of broad ideas, large ability and great tact. Fortune has opened the biggest sort of 8 chance to him, and, if he improves, it while he can, maintaining the prosperity of the road make it as popular as it is prosperous, and dc more than anyone else could do tor the great industrial interests of the State, upon whose welfare the prosperity of the road must ulti mately depend in no small measure.

 AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN CONNECTICUT TRAGEDY.
 The death of Elihu Spear, life convict, at the State prison Friday night recalls an almost forgotten tragedy. The crime for which Spear was sentenced occurred at West Suf1eld about ten years ago. He had sus- picions that his wife was unfaithful and that a neighbor, one Charles Davis, had betrayed him. One night he went home under the in fuence of liquor and finding his wife and Davis together in the house accused them of criminal conduct. Davis had also been drink ing heavily and after angry words had passed between the two he elected Spear from the house. The latter went to @ shed, procured an axe and again entering the house attacked Davis. In the melee which ensued Spear used the weapon with deadly effect and in- f1icted cut on Davis' skull that killed him instantly. Spear was tried in the Hartford county Superior court, sent to Wethersheld for life and his confinement ended only with hi- death. His body was taken to his former arc of reaidanea far huria1
